Explicit content warning
09/01/23 • 61 min
Ever felt the chills of an unseen presence? Ever sensed the history seeping through the walls? Come with us, as we tread the corridors of the Dumas Brothel in Butte, Montana. Here, time stands still, and whispers from the past linger. We recount tales of men and women who once sought refuge here, from the hardships of life, or perhaps just the loneliness. It's not just about the ghostly echoes though, but more about the humanity that resonates within these walls, and the question: have we really evolved from the patrons of the past?
The Dumas Brothel was but one part of Butte, Montana's infamous Red Light District, where vice was an open secret. We take you back to a time when the women who worked these streets held sway, shaping the socio-economic landscape. But it's not just history, it's about today. Are we not still profiting from the exploitation and stigmatization of these workers? Together, let's peel off the layers of this dark chapter and explore the parallels in our present world.
Finally, we remember the women who bravely ran the Dumas Brothel - Eleanor Knot, Bonita Farron, and Ruby Garrett. We'll mourn their untimely demise and salute their resilience in a world that constantly changed around them. Amidst our journey through paranormal phenomenons and cold drafts, let's not forget the stories behind each shadowy figure and ethereal voice. The Dumas Brothel calls us to fathom history with a human touch and ensure that the tales of those who walked these halls are not forgotten. Join us in this exciting episode of When Walls Can Talk, where history and the paranormal intersect, and stay tuned for more.

3.16 | Beyond the Beast: The True Legends of the Algonquin Wendigo
Have you ever stood on the precipice of the unknown, questioning whether you should step forward into the chilling embrace of the supernatural or take a step back, keeping your feet firmly planted in the realm of the understood and the mundane? Join us as we journey into the icy heart of the Wendigo, a terrifying entity from Algonquin folklore, whose story is not just a chilling tale but a haunting exploration of the human psyche. Our discussion spans from its chilling portrayals in popular culture, such as Stephen King's Pet Cemetery and the thrilling series Hannibal, to the symbolism it holds in North American storytelling.
This is no ordinary discussion; I share my own spine-chilling encounter with the Wendigo in the Rockies, an experience that forever changed my understanding of the supernatural. This singular encounter, a brush with the raw, wild face of horror, sparked a passion for exploring the unknown that I've carried with me ever since. We tease apart the human capacity for transformation, the line between man and beast, and the terrifying potential for the monstrous within us all.
In our final act, we examine the Wendigo’s physical characteristics, preferred hunting ground, and how its legend has evolved over time. We hear stories of men overtaken by an insatiable hunger, drawing comparisons to legends of werewolves and pondering the nature of human transformation. Throughout, we challenge you to ask yourself: How would I react when faced with the unknown? Are we more beast than we'd care to admit? Join us, share in our exploration of the Wendigo legend, and dare to uncover the mysteries of the universe.
